Junior Tester

Are you curious about how software works and enjoy finding out whether everything does what it should? Do you have an eye for detail, like asking critical questions, and get energy from finding areas for improvement?

Then this Junior Tester position is exactly what you're looking for!

As a tester, you play an important role in software quality. You investigate applications, carry out tests, and critically examine how they work. Do you come across something that isn't right? Then you analyze what's going on and make sure your findings clearly reach the right people.

You don't need any experience as a tester yet. We mainly value that you are eager to learn, analytical, and accurate, and that you want to discover how to make software better and better.

What will you do as a Junior Tester?

As a Junior Tester, you are occupied with checking and assessing the functioning and quality of applications and systems. You work together with developers, analysts, and other involved colleagues to ensure that software functions well and meets expectations.

You learn step by step how to carry out different types of tests and how to report your findings in a clear way.

Concretely, your tasks are:

• Drafting test scenarios

• Executing test cases

• Checking whether applications work as intended

• Identifying errors, deviations, and points for improvement

• Analyzing test results and findings

• Registering and clearly communicating findings

• Collaborating with developers, analysts, and other stakeholders

• Thinking along about the quality and reliability of software

• Learning to work with different testing methodologies and tools

During the traineeship, you get the space to gain practical experience and take on more and more responsibility. This way, you grow step by step from trainee to an independent tester.

Within the Business & IT traineeship, you develop yourself into a real IT professional over two years. You gain hands-on practical experience immediately, follow training, and obtain relevant certificates that you can use for the rest of your career.

In the first year, you build a strong foundation in IT, systems, processes, and communication. From there, you continue to develop yourself within your field of expertise.

You start with an onboarding at our office in Bunnik, where you follow training and get to know your fellow trainees. After that, you start in your role as Junior Tester. Throughout the entire program, you receive guidance from a personal people manager who helps you take steps in your development.

What we offer you

• A starting salary between €2600 and €2800

• A permanent contract right away

• 25 vacation days & holiday pay

• A tailored travel expense allowance

• Numerous trainings and recognized certificates that help you build your CV

• One-on-one guidance throughout the entire program

• Fun drinks, team outings, and events

• A full-time position of 36 to 40 hours per week

• The opportunity to develop yourself into an independent IT professional in two years

• Hybrid working is possible, with Assen as your fixed work location and occasionally working at the locations in Zwolle or The Hague

For this position, we consider your motivation and development potential more important than an extensive CV. Specific work experience as a tester is therefore not a requirement.

We are looking for someone who:

• Has at least a HBO (university of applied sciences) degree

• Has an affinity with IT, applications, and digital processes

• Can think analytically and in terms of problem-solving

• Is motivated to acquire new knowledge and skills

• Is proactive and likes to take initiative

• Wants to develop within the field of software testing
